Everyone is on for this one. Great vocals, even by Donna. Why isn't this getting any love?

Has been a favorite for years. But I hadn't heard for quite some time, and I'm listening to Get Shown right now...and...what an experience for those there that night. I mean, the entire first set has to be in the top whatever of all time. Play this entire set to someone who's never heard them.
